Children’s Minnesota collaborations among U.S. News & World Report Best Children’s Hospitals in two specialties

MINNEAPOLIS/ST. PAUL (Oct. 9, 2024) — Children’s Minnesota is pleased to announce that its care collaborations have once again been recognized as top performing in the U.S. News & World Report Best Children’s Hospitals for 2024-2025. The annual Best Children’s Hospitals rankings and ratings are designed to help families, and their doctors make informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions.

The Mayo Clinic – Children’s Minnesota Cardiovascular Collaborative provides comprehensive pediatric cardiovascular services — from routine care to advanced cardiac surgeries, from before birth and into adulthood. As part of the collaboration, physicians from each of the programs provide services at the other location, expanding coverage and improving educational opportunities. The collaboration enables both organizations to treat more patients with serious or complex medical conditions, with the goal of improving outcomes for our most vulnerable children.

Children’s Minnesota’s joint nephrology program with the Masonic Children’s Hospital is led by experienced physicians who are experts at diagnosing and treating a wide variety of kidney diseases in children, from the most common to the rare.
